My ISP was trying to trick me: They told me that if I change my internet connection package to a package where I pay 19$ per month (VAT included) for unlimited use, and promise (that means sign a contract) to stay a member of that specific ISP for at least 3 months from now, they will send me Windows ME for free.

But what they don't know (won't hurt them) is: My current package was 1$ a day for unlimited use, 0$ for days during which I'm not online, VAT included.
And I generally am online more than 19 days a month.
So I said, "why not" and took the package.

Now, I just received WinME in the mail.
I opened the box, and "isn't that the cutest thing you've ever seen?" The CD is holographic. The coolest thing I've ever seen coming from Microsoft!
It was really neat, I had to spend three minutes just tilting the CD in various angles.

Then, I held the Shift key (God forbid the autostart), and inserted the CD in the drive.
Six directories, four files. The usual.
One directory caught my attention: Tools.
Inside it were two directories and no files. The interesting of the two was OldMSDos.
I opened it to find... QBASIC.EXE! Oh the joy! Oh the nostalgia!

After playing a bit with CALL ABSOLUTE, the ultimate question came to my mind.

Should I keep this CD in the closet and use it only when I want to have fun with holograms and QBasic, or should I actually... Drum roll please... Install WinME?

Physically, philosophically, programatically, hard-drive-spaceically, and crashabilitily. Is the upgrade from 98 to ME worth it?
